Alison Neville grew up in Albury, on the border of New South Wales and Victoria – also known as the home of the Flying Fruit Fly Circus. It was there that her passion for circus began. At 16, she shifted focus to technical production. Through HotHouse Theatre she earned a Certificate IV in Live Production, Theatre and Events under the mentorship of renowned lighting designer and operations manager, Rob Scott.
After completing Year 12 and her technical traineeship, Neville moved to Europe, where she toured and worked in technical production across major arts festivals, theatres and touring productions.
